Villain: Fairy, please offer your loyalty

The first lesson at the academy was "Analysis of Spiritual Energy Circulation".

The instructor was an elderly professor with white hair and beard, who was said to be a master of array formations in the Heavenly Evolution Realm, and had an extremely rigid and strict personality.

"Optimizing the spiritual energy circulation of this 'Nine Revolutions Spirit Gathering Array' is an age-old problem."

The old professor pointed to the densely packed array diagram on the blackboard, which looked like scribbles, with a serious expression.

"Whoever can simplify the original eighty-one spiritual energy nodes to less than seventy without reducing the array's power will get a perfect score in this semester's array class!"

The classroom was filled with wails.

"Seventy? How is that possible! The current limit is only seventy-eight!"

"This is too difficult! Are they trying to make us go bald?"

Even Chu Xuan'er, who had been keeping a cold expression, frowned deeply, her pen scribbling and scribbling on the paper, clearly clueless.

Lin Feng, who was in the corner, suddenly brightened up.

The opportunity is coming!

The Guigu inheritance he received contained a chapter on formations.

Although I'm not an expert, as long as I activate my "X-ray vision" to observe the weaknesses in the spiritual energy flow of the array on the blackboard, I might be able to guess a few correctly!

"Once I solve this, Xuan'er and Junior Sister Ling'er will definitely look at me with new respect!"

Just as Lin Feng was about to raise his hand to show off.

"Teacher, this question is too easy!"

A lazy voice came from the back row.

Gu Fan casually fiddled with the lace trim on Chu Ling'er's dress and said:

"Why simplify the nodes? Why not just change the architecture?"

"Change the architecture?"

The old professor was so angry that his beard trembled.

"Nonsense! This Nine Revolutions Spirit Gathering Array is a classic structure passed down from ancient times. How can you change it just like that? Which class are you in? Don't talk nonsense if you don't know!"

"I don't understand?"

Gu Fan smiled.

He stood up and walked straight to the podium.

"Look closely, this is what optimization is all about."

Gu Fan picked up the chalk, not to modify the existing array diagram, but to draw a...

A simple integrated circuit diagram.

That's right, he incorporated the "parallel circuit" principle from his previous physics class into his spiritual energy circuit.

"Change these three nodes from a series connection to a parallel connection, and add a voltage regulator diode... add a spirit stone as a voltage regulator."

Brush brush!

In less than a minute, a new array diagram that was shockingly simple appeared on the blackboard.

The number of nodes is only...

Thirty-six!

"Buzz!"

Gu Fan casually channeled a burst of spiritual energy into the array to activate it.

Suddenly, a terrifying suction force erupted, drawing away all the free spiritual energy in the classroom and converging it all at the center of that simple array diagram.

"This...efficiency has increased threefold?!"

The old professor was so shocked that he dropped his glasses.

"Genius! This is simply a genius idea! It can actually be used like this?! I've researched this my whole life, and I'm still inferior to a teenager?!"

Everyone stared at Gu Fan as if he were a monster.

Is that all?

And it's a revolutionary solution?

"Wow!! You're amazing, big brother!!"

Chu Ling'er was the first to react, rushing to the podium and hugging Gu Fan's neck. Under everyone's watchful eyes, she stood on tiptoe—

"Chirp~"

A sweet kiss landed on Gu Fan's cheek.

"This is the reward for a genius! Hehe!"

Chu Ling'er smiled, her eyes crinkling with admiration.

"Ahem, keep a low profile, it's basic procedure."

Gu Fan touched his cheek, then wrapped his arm around the little girl's waist with obvious pleasure, before giving Lin Feng a provocative look in the corner.

Lin Feng's hand, which he had just raised but hadn't had a chance to lower, froze in mid-air, looking like a fool.

His X-ray vision has only just begun!

Did they finish all the questions? And even managed to get a bunch of kisses along the way?

"puff!"

Lin Feng was so angry that his heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys were all aching.

Why was Maple born if mortal life is already here?!

……

The second period was the much-anticipated physical education class – "Practical Exercises".

On the playground, the trainees changed into their athletic outfits.

"Today's topic is the externalization and practical application of spiritual energy."

The PE teacher, a muscular man, roared loudly.

"Two people per group, practice against each other! Stop when you've made your point!"

Lin Feng immediately looked at Chu Xuan'er, and was about to walk over when he saw that Chu Xuan'er had already drawn her ancient sword and started practicing the Ghost Valley Sword Technique.

The surrounding spiritual energy instantly formed a vacuum zone.

Lin Feng could only reluctantly team up with a random passerby.

Gu Fan, on the other hand, was naturally paired with Chu Ling'er.

"Big brother, please be gentle~ I'm afraid of getting hurt~"

Chu Ling'er blinked her big eyes and acted coquettishly.

"Don't worry, your brother will teach you step by step."

Gu Fan smiled, preparing to use the guise of sparring to give his junior sister some pointers on her "physical flexibility".

Just then.

boom!

The playground gate was suddenly flung open by a wild aura.

"I heard this is the elite class? Who's the best fighter? Come out and exchange a few blows with me!"

A voice full of wildness and explosive power rang out.

Everyone turned to look and saw a very hot young woman striding towards them.

She has a healthy and alluring tanned complexion, wearing a tight tank top and hot pants, her abs are clearly visible, and her silver hair flies in the wind.

[System notification: A new Lady of Destiny has been detected!]

【Name: Freya】

【Attributes: Barbarian Princess, Battle Maniac】

[Cultivation Level: Late Foundation Establishment (Innate Divine Strength)]

[Number of charging cycles: 0]

Freya's gaze swept across the entire room, her eyes filled with provocation:

"What? Are you all chickening out? Nobody dares to accept the challenge?"

The audience was silent.

Everyone could feel the fierce and domineering aura emanating from this girl, and no one wanted to go up and provoke her.

Gu Fan raised an eyebrow, just about to speak.

"I'll do it!"

A figure suddenly darted out from the crowd and landed steadily in front of Freya.

It was Lin Feng!

Although he was only at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, he stood tall and proud, his eyes burning with a desire to prove himself.

He was being outdone by Gu Fan in class and was looking for a way to vent his frustration, especially since the new girl didn't seem to know about his "reputation"!

This is a golden opportunity to clear one's name!

"Who are you?"

Freya looked him up and down, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes.

"Early Foundation Establishment stage? Too weak."

"My name is Lin Feng."

Lin Feng remained neither humble nor arrogant, assuming a starting stance.

"Cultivation level does not equate to combat strength. Please enlighten me!"

"Hmph, you've got quite the nerve! I'll beat you to a pulp!"

Freya snorted coldly and charged out like a cheetah, her fist, carrying a terrifying force, aimed straight at Lin Feng's face!

So fast!

The surrounding students gasped in surprise.

However, Lin Feng remained calm and composed, a confident smile playing on his lips.

Under the Supreme Perspective Eye, Freya's movements were fast, but the trajectory of her spiritual energy flow was clearly visible to him!

"Too slow!"

Lin Feng dodged the punch by sidestepping, then used the Ghost Valley Movement Technique to circle around Freya to her side and behind like a ghost, and struck out with a palm!

boom!

boom!boom!

The two exchanged blows for more than ten rounds.

Freya's power is terrifying; every strike can split mountains and shatter rocks. But Lin Feng is like a slippery eel, always managing to avoid her attacks by the slightest margin and counterattack when she hasn't yet regained her strength.

"That's interesting!"

Freya grew more and more excited as the fight progressed, her contempt vanishing and replaced by the fervor of facing a formidable opponent.

"Again!!"

The two fought with increasing ferocity, their spiritual energy surging, leaving the surrounding students dumbfounded.

"Wow... Lin Feng may be a peeping tom, but his skills... are actually pretty impressive!"

"He can actually go toe-to-toe with a late-stage Foundation Establishment body cultivator? It seems this 'freak' has the ability to be freakish."

Hearing the surroundings finally shift from one-sided mockery to more surprise and recognition, Lin Feng felt incredibly pleased!

now it's right!

I'm the main character!

I am the one who should be the center of attention!

Finally, after a hundred moves.

Freya threw a punch, but Lin Feng used the force against her, employing a Ghost Valley technique called "Four Ounces Deflect a Thousand Pounds." Freya was forced back three steps, while he himself only took half a step.

Although the outcome is still undecided, the superiority of the opponent has already been determined!

In the early stages of the battle, Lin Feng still held a slight advantage, and he won!

"good!"

Freya steadied herself, and instead of getting angry, she laughed loudly, stepped forward, and patted Lin Feng's shoulder heavily:

"Cool!"

"You're the first person my age to withstand so many of my punches without collapsing! Your name is Lin Feng, right? I, Freya, acknowledge you!"
